Chapter 60: Incidents
"Got it, got it, by the way, cousin, are you going to end up this year?" Su Xizhu suddenly thought that today was the year of the big exam and asked with great concern, Zhong Lishu liked this kind of care very much, and a smile appeared on his face.
Zhong Lishu could have taken the Xiucai exam a long time ago, but the eldest uncle didn't let him take the exam in order to suppress his cousin, probably because he wanted him to get a good ranking in one fell swoop.
"I should be able to get off the field, but my father asked me to finish the Xiucai exam at most, and I can't continue to take the exam until three years later." He was only fourteen years old, and his father wanted him to be safe.
"Why wait? Isn't the eldest brother-in-law also the top student in high school at the age of fifteen? Su Wen felt that Zhong Lishu was also very smart, and he could go to high school even if he was admitted now.
Didn't you see that the master who looked at him with angry eyebrows could smile a flower on his cousin's face, and treat him properly. If it weren't for his cousin's good personality, Su Wen estimated that there would not be too many people in the school who wanted to put on his sack, because he had been practicing martial arts diligently recently, and he had thought of a hundred ways to protect his cousin.
"Han Shizi is a talented person, although I am sure that I can pass the exam now, I am not sure that I will be the top student in high school." Zhong Lishu also admired Han Zhan very much in his heart.
Su Wen stopped talking when he heard that Zhong Lishu was going to the champion, and the exam was for the first, not for passing, it couldn't be compared.
"Poof, brother, you have to work hard, I'm afraid the house will let you go this year, but I guess you can't pass the test, this time it's to save experience, but three years later, if you can't pass the high school champion cousin, then my sister and I can only burn incense for you during the New Year's holidays."
"Stinky Azhu, are you just cursing your brother like this, don't worry, my cousin helped me get the pre-exam review materials, hum, don't dare to say anything else, Xiucai, I will definitely be able to get in, just wait and see, haha."
Su Xizhu looked at Su Wen with a smile, no wonder he was so confident, it turned out that he had opened a small stove by Xueshen. Su Xizhu hurriedly looked at Zhong Lishu, but found that this guy was so red that he didn't dare to look at her, which made Su Xizhu a little confused, could it be that Zhong Lishu, the god of learning, couldn't take Su Wen this scumbag, so he was embarrassed?
Zhong Lishu heard Su Xizhu say to himself that he wanted to take the top prize, he didn't doubt it at all, and he was convinced that he would be able to go to high school in three years, after all, he was a little embarrassed after he said it just now, and he was too arrogant.
Zhong Lishu made up his mind to work harder, after all, there are countless powerful people, she will definitely not live up to her cousin's expectations, three years later, her cousin and Lu, he will be named on the gold list, and when he and his cousin get married, he will not let his cousin be wronged.
Su Wen looked at his cousin and sister who had an obviously weird atmosphere and scratched their heads, but fortunately, they arrived at the Hou Mansion soon, weird is weird. After sending Su Wen and Su Xizhu to the door, Zhong Lishu did not enter the mansion, but returned to the Changping Marquis Mansion.
Jiang told Su Xizhu about Lu Xueqiao's mother coming to apologize today, and also gave her the apology gifts given by the other party, all of which were things that little girls could use, although Su Xizhu was not bad at these things, but if Lu Xueqiao found fault again, she would take these things with anger.
"Mother, sister, can you eat, I'm hungry." Su asked for peace and strode in.
"You, how do you know how to eat, okay, come and wash your hands, you're going to live in the school tomorrow, you have to listen to Ah Shu, don't make trouble, you know."
"I know Mother, don't worry, when have I ever been in trouble." Su Wen shouted dissatisfiedly.
"Who beat up that young master named Liu Fu some time ago?" Jiang raised an eyebrow and glanced at him.
"I'm hoeing the strong and helping the weak, and I will do it righteously." The young master of the Liu family actually teased the little girl on the street, and the girl was about the same age as his sister, and the one of the Liu family actually teased on the street in the daytime, and he didn't break the other party's third leg to be considered his good temper.
"You, if it weren't for the fact that the other party was really rampant, do you think that if you hit someone, your father would not be able to teach you a lesson? I told you, if you make trouble in the school, then your father is going to tutor you to study in person, but don't blame your mother for not saving you. ”
As soon as Su Wen heard that his father was going to teach him to read, he immediately assured that he would be obedient and definitely follow in Zhong Lishu's footsteps, after all, he was not a sister who could make his father's gaze comforting, and no one wanted people to look at him as if he had been looking at a pig.
Jiang and Su Xizhu looked at each other and smiled, Su Wen was afraid of studying, as long as he could be admitted to Xiucai at home, but if Su Wen fell into the hands of his father, Su Wen didn't want to go out if he didn't take the exam, but it would be fatal for Su Wen.
"Speaking of this, sister, the girl's ancestor is a doctor, she also learned some, but unfortunately the family has suffered a disaster recently, I heard that she and a younger brother are left, originally came to Beijing to go to relatives, but unfortunately the other party did not take them in, I met them have been on the street for a few days."
"How do you know so much about this?" Jiang Shi was immediately alert when she heard her son's words, she didn't listen too much to the drama of this hero saving the beauty and promising each other, her son is now at the age of the beginning of love, but don't think about it.
"Before, my sister wanted me to help find a maid who knew medical skills, but I haven't met a suitable one, so after saving someone, I fell in love as soon as I heard the other party's words."
Su asked if he didn't understand what his mother was nervous about Jiang looked at her daughter and Su Xizhu nodded this was something she mentioned many years ago but she didn t expect her brother to remember it now.
"Mother, Ruyi is eighteen years old, and her daughter wants to keep her for another two years before she marries, and then Chang'an Xile can be on her own, and it is a good thing to have a maid who understands medical skills."
Jiang didn't think much about it, she supported her daughter's idea, "Since you said so, you must have hidden the pair of sisters and brothers?" ”
"Mother, it was my cousin who helped me, and he asked people to arrange the pair of sisters and brothers to the eldest aunt's Zhuangzi."
"Okay, you first put people on your mother's dowry Zhuangzi, and let people go to see them another day, if there is no problem with your character, let people teach you some rules, and their sisters and brothers will be servants for you."
Jiang also felt that it was good to have a person around his children who knew some medical science, but Jiang didn't care much, listening to the description that the two children were not very old, at most they knew some fur, and it was better to talk than nothing.
"Mother, there are regulations for maids in the house, why don't you wait until you get married?"
"What's that, after teaching the rules, their monthly profit or something will come out of the mother's private room, and if they have any opinions in the big house and the second room, let them pay for their children and add people."
Jiang Shi said indifferently, she has money, and it is no problem to arrange more people to serve her children, anyway, she doesn't have to pay for it in the public, and others will just say a few sour words at most.
"Mother is so good, mother, when my brother's arrangement is complete, I will meet in person."
"Okay, it's all up to you, eat well." Jiang looked at the two children with a smile, and his eyes were full of love.
On the other side, Zhong Lishu, who was in a good mood, found that the atmosphere in the house was very strange when he returned home, especially when he saw the maid in his mother's house waving at him anxiously in the corner, Zhong Lishu's heart chuckled, and he was stopped by the housekeeper just thinking about it.
"Shizi, Master Hou, please come over."
"Uncle Zhong, what's going on?" Zhong Lishu's face was a little ugly, could it be that his mother did something to anger his father?
"Shizi, Mrs. Zhu has signs of miscarriage and is dying, which involves Mrs. Hou." Steward Zhong thought about the face of the Hou Ye, and looked at the prince again, and really didn't like the lady who could cause trouble.
Although Zhong Lishu was mentally prepared, he still chuckled when he heard Zhong Jian say this, and now he only hopes that Mrs. Zhu can survive this hurdle.
Zhong Lishu was taken by the housekeeper to Anqing Pavilion, this is where Zhu Manqing lived, since the last incident, the Changping Marquis Mansion entered a relatively stable time, but he didn't expect it to be quiet before the storm.
Zhu Manqing devoted himself to raising the fetus, and Su Rou was a lot more low-key because of the relationship between her mother's family and her mother-in-law's family, Zhong Lishu thought that everyone could always be safe, but as soon as he entered Anqing Pavilion, Zhong Lishu knew that his previous prayer might not be fulfilled.
The servants were all silent, and Zhu Manqing's moaning sound was faintly heard in the house, that is, Zhong Lishu is still young and knows that Zhu Manqing is probably very bad now, she is only five months pregnant, and something happened at this time? I'm afraid it's easy to kill two people with one corpse.
As soon as Su Rou saw Zhong Lijing coming, the temper that had been suppressed instantly came up, and she looked at Zhong Lijing and shouted dissatisfiedly.
"Zhong Lijing, what do you mean? What do you call my son to do? Zhu Manqing has a concubine, and the fetus is not guaranteed, what do you want my son to do? Does she have that big face? ”
Since Zhu Manqing's accident, Zhong Lijing didn't say a word when he called Su Rou over, originally Su Rou still cared about a few words, looking at Zhong Lijing's appearance, she had no interest in talking, she wanted to leave, but Mama Rong from her mother's family stopped Su Rou, so Su Rou sat so bored, until she saw Zhong Lishu.
"Manqing is a flat wife." Zhong Lijing looked at Su Rou coldly, Su Rou was startled by this look, but still muttered dissatisfiedly, "A flat wife is also a concubine, what is noble." ”
"Father, mother." Zhong Lishu watched Zhong Lijing and Su Rou quarrel again, and hurriedly spoke first.
"Su'er, you go back first, what do you do at this time, it's not too bad to be unlucky."
"Shut up, if Manqing and the child have a good relationship, I will definitely divorce you." Zhong Lijing suddenly shouted angrily, Su Rou was stunned for a moment, and then looked at the servants around him who couldn't wait to shrink their heads into the soil, and their faces suddenly turned red.
"Zhong Lijing, you dare? You actually said you were going to divorce me? Because of a concubine, you actually divorced your wife? Aren't you afraid that others will say that you spoil your concubine and kill your concubine? Besides, Zhong Lijing, what do you mean, what does it matter to me that slut Zhu Manqing? ”
Su Rou screamed, and the people around her lowered their heads and tried to shrink their bodies, not even daring to persuade them.
"What's the matter with you? If it weren't for you, would Manqing and the child be dying now? Zhong Lijing's eyes were bloodshot, and he was even more embarrassed when he looked at Su Rou's domineering appearance, he approached Su Rou, and Su Rou took a few steps back in fright.
